Published Thu, 14 Nov 2024 12:21:35 GMT

Applications for Los Angeles' Emergency Renters Assistance Program will be available to residents beginning at 8 a.m. Tuesday.The program was designed to help eligible residents who owe back rent since the time of the COVID-19 pandemic in order to stop people from being evicted. The idea is that more evictions would only add to the city's homeless population. The City Council and Mayor Karen Bass approved the controversial Measure ULA, also known as the "mansion tax," earlier this year to fund rental assistance programs and build affordable housing.The measure places a 4% sales tax on any property worth more than $5 million, and a 5.5% sales tax on any property worth over $10 million.Here is how to qualify for the assistance:Must be a resident of Los AngelesOne or more individuals within the household have experienced a loss of employment, reduction in household income, incurred significant costs or experienced other financial hardship between March 2020 and now Have unpaid ren...

Common Ground Digs Up The Dirt On Regenerative Farming

Published Thu, 14 Nov 2024 12:21:35 GMT

The documentary film on the recurring subject of regenerative farming, COMMON GROUND, rolls out in theaters across America starting Wednesday, Sept. 27 and features the narration of actors and activists Jason Momoa, Donald Glover, Woody Harrelson, Rosario Dawson and Laura Dern alongside North Dakota regenerative farmer Gabe Brown.  The elegantly photographed and empowering film highlights the information and tools needed to alter food and agricultural systems by working with nature and employing the principles of regenerative farming. Research has shown that increased production of healthier crops that are chemical-free with more calories per acre than the chemical-laden GMO crops at a lower cost of production, and the added benefit of healthier soil, retains more water and stores carbon from the atmosphere than chemically-laden soils.Created by Ojai-based filmmakers Josh and Rebecca Tickell, who also produced Kiss The Ground, On Sacred Ground about events behind the Dakota Access P...

Sleeping on long-haul flights: Here are the top tips for snoozing in the sky

Published Thu, 14 Nov 2024 12:21:35 GMT

By Leigh Signal | CNNFor most of us, the prospect of a long-haul flight is exciting, mixed with a few nerves. We’re off somewhere different – perhaps a vacation, maybe to catch up with friends or family. Even work can be more interesting when you’re in a new location.Of course, you want to arrive fully rested and ready to go. But by its very definition, a long-haul flight involves travelling for a long period of time, often more than 12 hours. If you’re on a flight from New York to Singapore, it can be close to 19 hours.All that time you’re confined in a seat that’s supposed to recline but feels like it hardly moves, while the seat in front seems to recline ten times lower than yours.So, what can you do to get a a decent rest?Accept the situationThe first tip for sleep in this setting is to relax your expectations a little.Humans are just not well designed to sleep in an almost upright position. Unless you’re lucky to fly in a class with a lie-flat seat, you’re very unlikely to step...

Sushi Salon, known for omakase and unique fish killing, sets its sights on Oakland

Published Thu, 14 Nov 2024 12:21:35 GMT

If you love sushi and have $185 to blow, there are few better ways to go than the 18-course omakase meal at Sushi Salon. A pop-up that’s been operating from Berkeley’s Fish & Bird Sousaku Izakaya, the operation has clenched a devoted following for its wild and creative array of sushi and a technique of preserving fish by spiking their spinal cords with wire.Joji Nonaka and Anna Osawa, who before founding Sushi Salon worked in Alameda’s highly regarded Utzutzu, have been searching for a brick-and-mortar for a while. Now it appears they’ve found it in Oakland, according to a beverage-license notice in the window of 4008 Martin Luther King Jr. Way, next to Arthur Mac’s and the MacArthur BART station. The former States coffee shop is a small space, so it’ll be interesting to see how Nonaka and Osawa will squeeze their restaurant within, and whether they’ll offer to-go meals like they’ve been doing at Fish & Bird.There’s no me...
